Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4200,4460 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4200,4460 is 20.
Lets's calculate LCM of 848,5741
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4868368
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 20/4868368
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4200/848,4460/5741 is 20/4868368
The formula of LCM is LCM(a1,a2,a3....,an) = ( a1 × a2 × a3 × .... × an) / GCF(a1,a2,a3....,an) x common factors(if more than 2 numbers have common factors).
We need to calculate greatest common factor of 848,5741 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(848,5741) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(848,5741) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(848,5741) = ( 848 × 5741 ) / 1
LCM(848,5741) = 4868368 / 1
LCM(848,5741) = 4868368
